Comix is my favourite no-bloat viewer for collections of images: not just for comics, but also for paging through a directory full of graphs or photographs. But needing to slip to the arrow keys for navigation is an irritation: hence this quick little patch to enable h,j,k,l scrolling. [I later realise that the h conflicts with another keyboard shortcut. So it goes]. This is in lieu of a large patch, which I’ll probably never write, allowing shortcut keys to be set from a config file.

Here on github — the first time I’ve used github in this way, and an impressively painless experience. I’m now itching to hack on other code that’s hosted there. [also, there’s probably a way of getting automatic github updates posted here, or to facebook, or something]

What's this?
